  1. @Zupa Thanks! It works flawlessly now and the comments help a lot. One more thing I'd like to query about is the currency. Since it's made for Epoch, what variables would I need to change in order to get it to work for Exile's currency PopTabs / Respect? Just examining the giveReward file, I see "_cIndex = EPOCH_customVars find "Crypto";" and "EPOCH_defaultVars_SEPXVar". Any thoughts?

  2. Hi,

     

    I've added new vehicles to the hero trader using the "Private Hive Tools" GUI (Pretty awesome Web UI). However, in-game, I cannot see my recently added vehicles under "Helicopters Armed" - this on Chernarus. 

     

    I quickly narrowed down in the database that the trader ID for the Hero Trader is "143", and the "Helicopters Armed" ID is "493". Running a quick database query in the "Traders_DATA" table, I found the items listed under "Helicopters Armed" as you would see in-game, as you can see below;

    The "AH64D" is the vehicle (helicopter) I added to the Hero Trader.

     

    I restarted the server several times, but to no avail. An interesting thing I found is when you update the buying price of something in that list of "helicopters armed", and then restart the server, the buying price stays the same. This could only mean either;

     

    • A.) I'm not adding the vehicle correctly
    • B.) There's somewhere else I'm supposed to add the vehicle

    Any help is appreciated.

  3. It's just dawned on me. I bet you are only using one or the other in trying to set up your server and not BOTH. 

     

    You need : 

     

    Latest DayZ Epoch client files (1.0.5.1)

    Latest DayZ Epoch Server files

    Copy your Arma 2

    Copy your Arma 2 OA

     

    Then do the necessary file edits. 

     

    Ok, so it's now working fine. However, I have an issue in which my screen stays on the DayZ Logo, and I can hear self moving by pressing WASD, but the screen remains there. Any ideas?

  4. I started again completely. I removed Arma 2 and Arma 2 OA from steam, then went and deleted the folders from Steam Apps, and downloaded again. I followed the list you gave me before, in order, copying the files into a folder I made. Just playing the waiting game now. I'll report back when I'm done.

     

    Also, I followed that video bit by bit several times, although I really do think my Arma 2 / Arma 2 OA folders where just generally messed up.

  5. Hmm. Still got the same issue. I'm really confused at this point. The only thing different is that since I cannot download DayZ & DayZ Epoch with DayZ Commander, I've had to use DayZ Launcher. I've set the mod path to the Arma 2 OA folder. The file however is called "@DayZ_Epoch1051" so I simply removed the 1051 and proceeded. However, even when I do this, I still have no DayZ logo.

     

    This picture shows what it's like when loading into the server after downloading the 52KB file;

    After this screen, I get this;

  6. Sorry, but if you are watching videos on how to set up an Epoch server, how do you "know for a fact" the mission size is incorrect? Does the game load and you are able to play with no errors? If so, guess what? The file size is CORRECT :)

     

    I'm watching videos because after coming back to DayZ after X months, I've completely forgot how to setup a server. 

     

    As for the mission file size, I remember it wasn't 52KB in size, it was more than 1MB - also, there was, and is supposed to be a logo when loading into the game. 

     

    To answer your last question, no, I can't enter the game due to this problem.

  7. Hi,

     

    I've watched three videos showing the exact same procedure for copying and pasting the Arma 2 / Arma 2 OA files into one folder, and then the DayZ server files last. Once this is done, I've set the connection info for my MySQL server (which connects) and then gone ahead and launched the Chernarus bat file. The server loads fine, no errors. Upon loading up the game when joining the server, I get to the lobby in which it automatically starts downloading the mission file, however this mission file is 52kb in size - which I know for a fact from previous released is incorrect. Then it begins to load with no logo - in which I have to wait for quite a while until it shows me an error about the logo not being found, and then kicks me back to the menu. The fact that no matter which order or how many times I attempt to create this private server, I always end up with this same issue.

     

    Any ideas?

     

    Thanks,
